coachblalock Knife Enthusiast Registered: 12/03/16 Posts: 1872 Loc: Lake Fork, East Texas	We got 'em around here. We call 'em "Milermor" birds. When I was a kid, I asked my Dad why they called those peckerwood birds: "Milermor" birds. He replied back matter of factly: "'Cause you can hear them birds for a mile 'er more! _________________________ "Filet that fish? Hell naw!

alan_grombacher Knife Enthusiast Registered: 08/20/07 Posts: 1038 Loc: Canada	Hey Rod, That looks like my former apple tree. We had a woodpecker last spring literally destroy my apple tree. That tree made great apple sauce, and my Nova Scotia Duck Toller misses all those apples that she enjoyed eating. _________________________ Alan Grombacher RKCC-CMI-010 RKS#5531

rodbrown Knife Enthusiast Registered: 12/11/05 Posts: 2141 Loc: Ontario, Canada	Alan I have not seen a Pileated during our recent country side walks. But as you can see they are around. Where we lived at our previous house ( across town) a Pileated would “attack” a stump in our neighbours yard. I could not get over the size of the bird, huge! _________________________ Rod Brown RKS 3846 RKCC CM-123 Whether you think you can or can not, you are right.

LarryWW1246 Knife Enthusiast Registered: 03/20/06 Posts: 1856	This woodpecker is pretty shy. But in the spring and sometimes during the summer we have them come to feed on suet at our birdfeeder. We assume they use the suet to feed the young. Less work than digging grubs out of dead trees, I guess. Larry _________________________ Larry W. Williams RKCC #CM-041 ABKA #046 RKS #1246

pappy19 Knife Enthusiast Registered: 10/31/07 Posts: 7437 Loc: Garden Valley, Idaho	We live in a log home and not friends with woodpeckers or flickers. I chase them off. Lord forbid if a Piliated woodpecker ever started on my house.
